I've had to send 3 of these back. Whoever sews these is not catching the elastic to the body of the underwear. Then you quickly see loose threads along the elastic, it pulls away, creating a hole. I sure hope they correct this issue because it's my favorite underwear. I have 4 total and have had to replace 3 in less than 6 months.
This was my first foray into underwear meant to be absorbent (I was hoping they'd work as backup for days with my period). I've had reusable pads (Party in My Pants) for years and have loved those. These underwear: not so much. They feel a bit like foam, and they make noise when you wear them. I don't like the sound, and I don't like the way these feel against my skin. (Again, the reusable pads I've had have been fine!) Someone else said that they seem/feel disposable, and I think that's kind of the problem. I know they aren't - that's why I bought them! - but they have more in common with something disposable than with something meant to last. I'd look elsewhere. I was disappointed!
The seam across the butt makes me feel like my pants are falling down. Everything else is fine.
I just love these underwear! I followed the size chart, measured my hips and waist, and went with the size small. They fit perfectly! I have 40 in hips and a 35 in waist and usually wear a size 10. They cover my bum nicely, no wedgies. The "sneeze guard" lining eliminates the need to wear any sort of pantiliner. I can't believe I waited until almost 50 years old to treat myself to the best underwear ever. Highly recommend.
I've been using products like these for years with a hand full of other brands. In comparison, while these do run big compared to others (I typically wear XL but these were perfect in L - I'm 5'8" and about 230lbs give or take 5 depending on the day of the month) it was overall a better fit, as other brands leave my cheeks felling exposed - yes, I've tried the next size up and baggy underwear is not my bag. These are comparably priced if not overall less not taking into account discounts which can leave them being the least costly option I've tried. They have a better holdup than other brands. After a few wears/washes the elasticity and stitching is still holding and wear like new. They do have the same shortfall as most other brands, in that the gusset or guard area falls short by about .5-1 inch where coverage/protection is needed for general every day use. Despite this, they are my favorite so far. I do wish it came in a bikini cut so the waistband didn't fall so high and more colors patterns were available but neither or deal breakers.
